6. Approval of Community Development Block Grant Funds for the Roosevelt Community Technology Center
Jerome Miller, Neighborhood Services Director, introduced the item, stating that the Roosevelt Community Technology Center will greatly benefit from $985,000 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. Mr. Miller stated these funds will be used to expand the technology center located at 6029 S. 7th Street in Phoenix. Staff has performed a technical review of the description, proposed outcomes, and budget of the proposal and is forwarding the request for consideration.
Deborah Dillon, Youth and Education Programs Director, stated the Roosevelt Center was originally built in 1912 after a Presidential visit. In 1993, the Roosevelt School District decided to turn the facility into a free access technology center. Ms. Dillon added that this facility needs to be renovated and expanded to be of any positive use for the growing population of students in the area. Ms. Dillon stated these CDBG funds will allow Roosevelt to expand and modernize their facility, and offer a wide range of adult education classes. Ms. Dillon also stated that the center offers the only access some students and parents in the South Mountain area have to technology.
Vespi Karjay, Project Architect, stated the Roosevelt Community Technology Center serves about 45,000 people per year, and they are expecting a 20 percent user increase this year, or 54,000 people. He stated by investing in this facility, services can be expanded while preserving the center’s historic value. The neighborhood and surrounding areas are extremely interested and excited to be a part of this project. Mr. Karjay said Interior renovations will add approximately 3-5 thousand square feet to the structure.
Ms. Dillon stated the Pulliam and Piper Foundations, the Roosevelt School District, and Maricopa County all plan to donate to this construction project, which provides an example of staff’s efforts to leverage every dollar during these trying economic times.
Chairman Simplot asked for clarification on the timeline for this item, and Mr. Miller responded staff plans to request approval at the Formal City Council meeting in two weeks.
Councilman Stanton stated that Phoenix Union returned some CDBG funding after they were able to acquire other funding sources, and the Subcommittee had asked the funding to be reserved as educational funds. He congratulated Roosevelt for moving forward with this project.
Councilman Stanton moved to approve the item, and Councilwoman Baier seconded the motion. The motion passed 3:0.
7. Lead Based Paint Hazard Grant Award Update
Ed Zuercher, Deputy City Manager, introduced the item, stating the report is an update to the Lead Based Paint Hazard Control (LBPHC) Grant application submitted to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) as authorized by City Council on June 6, 2008.
Yolanda Martinez, Neighborhood Services Project Manager, stated the city has successfully managed the Lead Hazard Control Program for 14 years, however, funding reductions will likely require adjustments to the program.
Tim Boling, Neighborhood Services Deputy Director, shared a Powerpoint presentation, including an overview of the program, stating the City of Phoenix has received five HUD grants for this initiative since 1996 totaling 14.56 million dollars. Through the program, 69,000 housing units built pre-1978 in the City of Phoenix were identified as lead based paint targets. Of those 69,000 houses identified, 73 percent fall below 80 percent of the Area Median Income.
Chairman Simplot asked of the 69,000 homes identified, how many has the city been able to fix with the $14.56 million awarded. Mr. Boling responded that the City of Phoenix has been able to fix 1,000 homes with the funding awarded. Mr. Boling added staff is actively seeking funding sources as a means to leverage additional dollars.
Councilman Stanton asked if funding for the program was being reduced on a national level, or just in Phoenix. Mr. Boling replied that the federal government is committed to lead abatement and plans to make all homes lead free by 2010. Lead abatement funding will transfer to another federal program entitled “Healthy Homes.” Mr. Boling added there is a possibility of merging the Healthy Homes and lead abatement programs.
Ed Zuercher, Deputy City Manager, stated the Healthy Homes initiative does not specifically delegate funding for lead abatement.
Yolanda Martinez, Neighborhood Services Project Manager, HUD plans to build capacity for the program through public and private partnerships with the State of Arizona, Maricopa County, and the US Department of Health and Human Services.
Councilman Stanton asked if the Healthy Homes project has equal health benefits compared to the lead abatement program.
Mr. Miller responded both were equally important, and the City of Phoenix should address lead abatement in other programs. Mr. Boling stated CDBG regulations required testing for removing lead based paint hazards in households, and staff is working to identify funds to augment the program.
Councilman Stanton asked if staff was prepared to make a recommendation as to whether Healthy Homes is a better program than the lead abatement program. Mr. Miller stated while both are equally important, would say overall lead abatement and education, followed by the Healthy Homes program.
Councilman Stanton asked if the item should be scheduled as an item for the Federal Agenda. Mr. Zuercher stated that the November Work Study Session will include a discussion of the Federal Agenda, and staff will prepare to present the issue at that time.
This item was for information only.
8. Artists’ Contracts for PSHIA Terrazzo Floor Public Art Project
Phil Jones, Arts and Culture Administrator, introduced the item and Public Art Program Director Ed Lebow. Mr. Lebow stated staff is requesting City Council authorization of separate contracts with Arizona artists Fausto Fernandez, Daniel Mayer, Daniel Martin Diaz, Teresa Willegas, Janelle Stanley, and Anne Coe to create terrazzo floor designs for Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. These are local Arizona artists who developed the most creative ways to implement terrazzo into their two dimensional designs for the airport art project. This is a first for the City of Phoenix to allow two dimensional artists the opportunity to be involved in public art.
Mr. Lebow stated Terminal 3 at Sky Harbor will be completed by the end of August 2009, and the art team worked very closely with the Phoenix Aviation Department to identify an area that will work well with the art project. Mr. Lebow added this project provides an opportunity for “homegrown” Arizona artists to gain experience and exposure.
Councilwoman Baier moved to approve the item, and Councilman Stanton seconded the motion. The motion passed 3:0.
9. Revision to Arts Grants Program Eligibility Requirements, Policies and Procedures
Phil Jones, Arts and Culture Administrator, introduced the item and Phoenix Arts Commission Chair Marc Kellenberger. Mr. Jones provided an overview of planned revisions to the city’s Arts Grants Program for the 2009-2010 funding cycle, stating in preparation for a reduction in available General Funds, the Office of Arts and Culture has been working to restructure who is eligible to apply for funding for specific arts projects.
The Commission viewed this possible reduction as an opportunity to re-evaluate the types of organizations that should be eligible to apply for grant funding. Mr. Jones stated previously, cultural groups have not been funded, but such groups will now be encouraged to apply in order to fulfill the mission of the Commission. The AOC will continue to support organizations that exhibit art for the general public, and most funding will be used for project support. The revisions level the playing field; awards will be based on merits rather than entitlement. The proposed process follows initial budget guidelines approved in January and will be finalized in May or June.
Chairman Simplot asked how this and other pending budget cuts will affect this year’s recipients. Mr. Jones responded they will not be affected this year since the grants have already been awarded. He added the AOC plans to meet with everyone who may be impacted by this decision.
Councilman Stanton asked how non Phoenix-based organizations would be affected by this new process. Mr. Jones stated non Phoenix-based organizations would no longer be eligible to apply. He added these are recommendations, which can be revisited.
Councilwoman Baier gave her thanks to staff for their hard work on revising the program.
Chairman Simplot asked when the public process was scheduled to start. Mr. Jones stated public hearings will likely occur in November.
This item was for information and discussion.
10. Update on Arts Town Hall Meeting
Ruth Osuna, Deputy City Manager, and Phil Jones, Office of Arts and Culture Administrator, provided an update on plans for an Arts Town Hall meeting during the first quarter of 2009. Mr. Jones stated event will convene the arts community to meet and discuss issues of importance, and asked the Subcommittee for their guidance on the meeting.
Chairman Simplot stated the Town Hall should include key arts and culture stakeholders from around the city.
Mr. Jones suggested there will be between 100 and 150 stakeholders involved in this Town Hall process, including Executive Directors of various organizations, artists, and local community leaders. Ms. Osuna stated staff will be able to provide a list of all invitees as the date approaches. Chairman Simplot advised staff to broaden representation from the various organizations within the arts and culture community.
Discussion ensued regarding possible dates and venues for the event, and possible ways to raise funds for the event.
Councilwoman Baier asked if the Town Hall would be a one day event. Mr. Jones stated it likely would be a one day event.
Mr. Jones stated staff will share information about the event’s Steering Committee at the November 26, 2008 Subcommittee meeting.
This item was for information and discussion only.
11. Update on the Phoenix Neighborhood Stabilization Program
Mr. Zuercher introduced the item, reminding the Subcommittee they would be provided with regular updates on the Neighborhood Stabilization Program. Mr. Zuercher stated staff has attended training since the last meeting, and introduced Neighborhood Services Director Jerome Miller to provide an update on the program.
Mr. Miller shared information from the training received in Washington D.C., stating the mission of the conference was to convey that HERA funding is to be delegated to those with the greatest risk of foreclosure. The HUD and CDBG funds are governed by a consolidated strategy, and the City of Phoenix needs to immediately decide the impact it wants to make, particularly since the funding must be spent very quickly.
Mr. Miller reminded the Subcommittee that the “Hope for Homeowners” program is the prevention piece and will support the Neighborhood Revitalization Program. Mr. Miller stated banks must participate in this program; two banks have agreed to participate so far, and staff will work to engage more banks in Phoenix.
Mr. Miller stated HERA and CDBG differ in regulations, and while the final rules are still very unclear; there is ongoing dialogue between municipalities and Washington DC. Fraud is a major concern with this funding, and Mr. Miller stated by being one of the top five award recipients the City of Phoenix will be watched very closely. Mr. Zuercher stated the City of Phoenix has a staffing plan and will involve auditors from the beginning to ensure compliance.
Councilman Stanton asked if the federal government was going to provide funding for staff. Mr. Zuercher affirmed the federal government allows 10 percent of the funds to be used for administration.
Mr. Miller stated the CDBG and HERA programs are intended for low and middle income households. There are still questions about whether or not funds could be used for land acquisition, however, it is unlikely
Chairman Simplot asked if the city could hold on to land until the market improves. Mr. Miller said yes, the city could hold on to land, but could not purchase land for the sole purpose of a profit. The funding is set to expire in 18 months; however, it is possible this time schedule could change.
Kim Dorney, Housing Department Director, stated a recent meeting in Los Angeles, California with representatives from HUD provided little additional information about the program. She said HUD is heavily emphasizing deadlines, and the City of Phoenix needs to work to spend contracted funds quickly. It is also important to comply with all environmental review processes. Ms. Dorney also mentioned this initiative is a work in progress, and applications for other types of housing assistance are welcome now so staff can immediately begin to obligate funds.
Mr. Miller reviewed the NSP funds and allocation process, and stated the City of Phoenix will host an Open House on November 12, 2008, which will mark the beginning of the 15-day public comment period.
Mr. Zuercher stated the city of Mesa appropriated funds to a specific zip code with the highest foreclosure rate; however, the City of Phoenix would be unable to use a one zip-code approach due to the scale of the problem in Phoenix.
Councilman Stanton asked if buying properties at a discount of 15 percent of the appraisal value would be a significant challenge for staff. Mr. Miller stated it would be a challenge, but not impossible.
Councilman Stanton asked if the city could buy properties to hold. Kate Krietor, Neighborhood Services Deputy Director, stated the city is able to buy properties, but only as a facilitator for other programs.
Chairman Simplot asked since there are no concrete dates, and HUD is unable to make specific recommendations, what is the likelihood municipalities will receive an extension. Jerome Miller responded no one is sure; however, staff is hopeful an extension will be approved in the coming weeks.
Councilwoman Baier asked which lenders were agreeing to support the program so far. Ms. Krietor stated it was announced Fannie Mae was participating, and HUD and the Federal Reserve would announce others on October 29, 2008.
Chairman Simplot asked how the Phoenix process compared with other cities in the valley.
Mr. Zuercher answered that staff attended a state meeting of cities with funding, and the Phoenix is comparing well. Other cities are using a similar process.
Mr. Zuercher advised the Subcommittee they would receive updates on the NSP program at every meeting.
This item was for information and discussion only.
12. Future Agenda Items
No future items were discussed during this time.

Neighborhoods, Housing, Historic Preservation, Arts & Culture Subcommittee, November 10, 2008, Item 3
This report provides the Neighborhoods, Housing, Historic Preservation, Arts & Culture (NHHPAC) Subcommittee an update on the draft Action Plan for the Phoenix Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) to address the uses as allowed under the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA) funding allocated to the city of Phoenix.
THE ISSUE
As authorized by the NHHPAC Subcommittee on October 24, and by the Mayor and Council at the October 28 Policy Meeting, Neighborhood Services and Housing departments staff have drafted a proposed Action Plan for the city’s program which establishes areas of greatest need, goals, and a tiered approach for strategies with funding targets.
OTHER INFORMATION
Proposed Phoenix Neighborhood Stabilization Program:
Consistent with HERA requirements, the city of Phoenix has defined areas with the greatest need as follows:
1) Areas in Phoenix having the greatest percentage of home foreclosures;
2) Areas in Phoenix with the highest percentage of homes financed by a subprime mortgage-related loan; and
3) Areas in Phoenix likely to face a significant rise in the rate of home foreclosures.
Due to the sizeable volume of foreclosed properties, the city of Phoenix’s targeted approach will impact neighborhoods throughout the entire city and not just one or two specific zip codes or areas. In order to facilitate gathering data and analysis, zip codes were used in their entirety for purposes of establishing ‘areas of greatest need;’ at least a portion of the census tracts and/or neighborhood boundaries within each zip code met the HERA requirements for targeting. The city’s highest foreclosure rates appear in the following general locations:
Ø Maryvale Village (Grand Avenue west to 99th Avenue, Camelback Road to McDowell Road and 99th Avenue to El Mirage Boulevard, Bethany Home Road. to Indian School Rd.);
Ø Laveen/Estrella and South Mountain Areas of Phoenix;
Ø 23rd Avenue west to the city limits, Van Buren Avenue north to Cactus Road; and,
Ø Bell Road to Pinnacle Peak Road, from 7th Street to 23rd Avenue.
Our NSP’s targeted approach will be used for maximum impact, giving priority emphasis to areas of greatest need. This approach is consistent with the goals of the Community Development Strategic Plan element of the Phoenix Consolidated Plan, 2005-2010. The strategy will respond to large areas of the city with significant foreclosure rates and widespread foreclosure risk factors through a three-tiered approach.
The Community Development goals established by City Council and the three NSP Tiers are:
Goal 1
Preserve good neighborhoods so they stay healthy
Tier 1
Goal 2
Turn around changing neighborhoods so that they become desirable
Tier 2
Goal 3
Redevelop and rebuild blighted areas so that they become workable neighborhoods
Tier 3
- Tier 1: Currently, neighborhoods within these zip codes are experiencing low-to-moderate risk and have incipient problems with foreclosures or are threatened by the spreading risk from nearby areas of greater distress. In order to preserve healthy neighborhoods, homebuyer assistance (down payment and/or closing costs) will be provided to encourage new homebuyers to purchase foreclosed properties within these areas. Acquisition, rehab and possibly demolition will only be available on an exception basis to address properties with the most serious health and safety issues.
- Tier 2: These zip codes have some neighborhoods experiencing moderate-to-high risk. Many of these neighborhoods are volatile and are at risk of becoming undesirable as the impacts of foreclosure become more evident. The NSP focus in these areas is to quickly stabilize neighborhoods so that they remain or once again become desirable to homebuyers and reduce the impacts on surrounding homeowners. Homebuyer assistance and moderate rehab assistance will encourage homebuyers to purchase foreclosed homes needing repairs. This will help restore confidence in neighborhoods where there is still a relatively strong market potential.
Some acquisitions may be necessary within these areas to stabilize neighborhoods where a property is in need of more extensive rehab for resale, blight removal or possible redevelopment. Foreclosed multi-family properties in these neighborhoods could also be rehabbed for the Housing Department’s portfolio. Phoenix will pursue quick successes in Tier 2 areas where confidence can be built back into a neighborhood that, but for a few key properties, would otherwise be attractive to homebuyers.
- Tier 3: Many neighborhoods within these zip codes are experiencing the highest rates and risk of continued foreclosure activity and abandonment. Many of these areas were already distressed and the city and our community partners have been actively working to redevelop and rebuild these communities. Other, newer neighborhoods also face health and safety concerns due to blight and vandalism of vacant properties.
The city proposes a more targeted approach, providing rehabilitation assistance with higher maximum amounts in addition to the assistance available in Tier 1 and Tier 2 areas. This would serve as an incentive for homebuyers to purchase homes in distressed areas which may also require extensive and/or more expensive repairs. Acquisition, rehab and resale, or demolition and redevelopment of properties may also be necessary to stabilize these neighborhoods as concentrations of foreclosures have eroded market potential that may have already been weak. Such neighborhoods may have larger numbers of foreclosures, may be in overall poorer physical condition, or more challenged to rebound without intensive intervention.
*Please refer to the attached summary of the Neighborhood Stabilization Program Activities including zip codes for each Tier.
A large area of the city is Tier 2 or Tier 3, with a higher concentration of foreclosed and abandoned homes along with a high risk of future foreclosures or abandonment. A priority emphasis will be given to neighborhoods within these Tiers as they face more challenging physical or market circumstances. The majority of NSP funding and the most intensive NSP eligible activities will be targeted to the highest risk/foreclosure rate areas. Initial strategies that further target the NSP activities are outlined in the Plan. These initial NSP strategies will be developed, deployed and continually refined to address the unique neighborhood sub-markets within these areas.
The draft Phoenix Neighborhood Stabilization Program, Substantial Amendment to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development Consolidated Plan and 2008 Annual Action Plan will be available for public review and comment from November 12 to November 26, 2008. An Open House Public Meeting on this Action Plan will also be held on November 19, 2008 at Phoenix City Hall.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Neighborhoods, Housing, Historic Preservation, Arts and Culture Subcommittee recommend the proposed Action Plan for the city’s Neighborhood Stabilization Program establishing areas of greatest need, goals, and a tiered approach as outlined in the attached summary. Staff will provide the NHHPAC Subcommittee with an update after the public process at their next regularly scheduled meeting.
